I am glad that I found this forum! I am from Italy. Recently I got a job in US which is not for health care but normal r&d scientist. I am a Hep B carrier with HBeAg-Positive. They will let me take a medical test before I can work. I wonder if they will check Hep B and if they find that I am a carrier with HBeAg-Positive whether they let others know or withdraw my offer. I feel so bad with this. It is like the world becomes dark for me. Please help me!
It depends on the facility. I have only worked at one hospital that actually required Hep B surface antigens to be tested. Most do not require that as a preemployment assessment.

Thanks a lot! It is a normal research position which is not related to food or health care. I heard that people who had pre-exployment medical test needs to take the blood test. I do not know what the test is. For TB or HIV or HVB? That make me feel so frustrated and feel so For my case several years ago HbsAg is positive but ALT is normal. I do not know and I am afraid that if they find it out, everyone will know that which will ruin my whole life. Quote from cometnurseIt depends on the facility.
